As per previous newsletters, cybercrime is on the rise and it is easier than you think for someone to steal your password.

Once someone has your password they can lock you out of your account and do the following:

Go through – or even delete – all of your emails, contacts, photos, etc.

Pretend to be you and send unwanted or harmful emails to your contacts

Use your account to reset the passwords for your other accounts (banking, shopping, etc.) Please contact Digit IT if you need assistance installing or using Google 2-step Verification.

Turn on Google 2-step Verification

When you enable 2-Step Verification (also known as two-factor authentication), you add an extra layer of security to your account. You sign in with something you know (your password) and something you have (a code sent to your phone).
